    Additionally, patentable materials must be novel, useful, and a non-obvious inventive step. - Wikipedia

    What does the patent contain? Where is the non-obvious inventive step? Using an AI to impersonate someone doesn’t strike me as novel, inventive, or surprising.

        We’re using Black Mirror, Idiocracy, and Handmaids Tale as a blueprint at this point.

    I mean, who wouldn’t want a mega corp to take over the personality of a loved one after they die? What could be better to help grieving than seeing an upbeat post of a deceised friend or loved one about the latest insurance benefits in your feed. This is some vile, soulless shit even for meta

      That’s abuse and harassment.

      There’s no other way to look at it. It is not that relative, it’s fraud to claim it is, and it’s just disgusting to pull at the heart strings like this to make money.
